Of its kind this little book is a classoc. For this Pelican edition the author, a Professor of Psychology, has entirely re-written several sections and revised the remainder.

Briefly The Psychology of Study explains the mental processes by which we 'read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest' information of all kinds. It deals with perception, memorization, original thinking, concentration, and preparation for examinations.

In its eariler editions this is a book which has proved particularly useful to students who have found difficulty in adapting themselves to the more self-reliant conditions of study at college. But the adive it contains is addressed to all learners - boys and girls at schook, students at colleges, and even amateurs who support local literary, historical, or scientific societies.

At heart we all wish to learn. Professor Mace suggests ways in which we can free the channels of desire, so that it can act as a positive driving-force in our studies.
